HowTo:Run WordPress On Your Computer

After we talked about learning CSS in HowTo:Learn CSS the easiest way.
Now it`s time to download WordPress and test it on your computer before getting a website and start blogging!

Why running WordPress on my computer?!
Simply..to learn how to manage posts, categories, pages, plugins and to try your themes and configure them..etc

You need to download WordPress(obviously) which can be done from this page,and then you need to download and install the latest WAMP to install Apache and MySQL.

To learn how to run wordpress on your computer,John had written a great series about “Installing WordPress on your own Windows computer“.

UPDATE:Zealios update me with a great tutorial about “How-to : Wordpress on Your Ubuntu(Linux)”

Thanks Zealios!

Please read it carefully and then, after you run wordpress correctly on your computer you`ll be ready to the next article of “How to play with WordPress files and templates”

P.S i didn’t face any problems installing wordpress on my own PC since the tutorial was very easy..

For any suggestions..please feel free to add a comment!
